Description:
This grant supplied funding to use Magsat and Oersted magnetic field data to model the magnetic field due to Earth's core and crust. Since the launch of Oersted was significantly delayed and no data were yet available by 5/31/99, the end of the funding period, it is perhaps fortunate that our primary goals were to develop and exploit innovative schemes for modeling the geomagnetic field, including new techniques for minimizing the influence of crustal magnetic fields in core field modelling. We were able to proceed with these efforts independently despite the lack of new observations. The work carried out under this grant has resulted in four peer-reviewed publications, with ongoing work contributing to a fifth in press paper. The research also provided significant contributions to education in PhD theses. Details of the results from this work can be found in the attached copies of the published work.
